<h4 id="rzahjerr-comnetattref">Considerations for network attributes that can affect APPC error recovery</h4>
<p><span class="bold">Network attributes</span> control information about the
communications environment. Allow APPN virtual controller support (ALWVRTAPPN),
and virtual controller autocreate APPC device limit (VRTAUTODEV) are network
attributes that play a role when a communications error occurs.</p>
<p>The following information explains more about each network attribute and
how the attribute affects system performance during error recovery.</p>
<ul>
<li>Allow APPN virtual controller support (ALWVRTAPPN) controls whether APPN
devices should be attached to real APPN controllers, or to a virtual controller.
<ul>
<li>The default value is *NO.</li>
<li>Use virtual APPN controllers to limit the number of devices that go into
error recovery when a failure occurs.</li>
<li>May be used to eliminate multiple device descriptions that can get created
when multiple routes through the APPN network exist.</li></ul></li>
<li>Virtual controller autocreate APPC device limit (VRTAUTODEV) indicates
the maximum number of automatically created APPC devices for each virtual
controller when the following is true:
<ul>
<li>The Allow APPN Virtual Controller (ALWVRTAPPN) network attribute is *YES.</li>
<li>The Allow HPR Transport Tower (ALWHPRTWR) network attribute is *YES.</li></ul>
<p> The VRTAUTODEV network attribute specifies the upper limit for the
number of automatically created APPC devices on virtual controllers. The more
APPC devices created, the longer it takes the system to do error recovery
processing on the controller. The default value on this network attribute
is 100. For every 100 new APPN locations that your system communicates, a
new virtual APPN controller is created.</p>

<div class="notebody">Manually created devices
may still be created if the VRTAUTODEV parameter value is less than the limit
of 254.</div></li></ul>
